Ancient of Days ~ I AM That I AM (Not "I am")

~ I AM that I AM ~

Daniel 7:9 ASV - I beheld till thrones were placed, and one that was ancient of days did sit: his raiment was white as snow, and the hair of his head like pure wool; his throne was fiery flames, [and] the wheels thereof burning fire.

  • [Dan 7:10 ASV] "The judgment was set, and the books were opened."
Psalm 69:28 ASV - Let them be blotted out of the book of life, And not be written with the righteous.


Revelation 10:1-2 ASV - And I saw another strong angel coming down out of heaven, arrayed with a cloud; and the rainbow was upon his head, and his face was as the sun, and his feet as pillars of fire; and he had in his hand a little book open: and he set his right foot upon the sea, and his left upon the earth;

""Love Never Fails"

The very last day of the assembly, as we got on the highway heading home, the vision in the sky, a beautiful array of cumulus clouds were spread across the skies. As I was looking out the window admiring the skies, as I often did and still do, I suddenly started paying close attention to the clouds, they were beyond beautiful that day.

As I was looking at the clouds, one in particular suddenly stood out, I had to do a double take...I was caught in Time. My hands pressed against the car window, I had instant butterflies in my stomach, and for a moment, it actually caught my breath, Awe-Inspiring to say the least. It was a massive cloud, it looked like it went from the Heavens to the ground here on Earth. The sun rays where shining through it in an array of rainbow colors, the most beautiful and familiar feeling in the world. 

  "I saw it before, as a child, exactly as it was", there was no doubt in my mind.
At that very moment, I knew Jehovah was with me and reminding me."

Revelation 10:7 ASV - but in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he is about to sound, then is finished the mystery of God, according to the good tidings which he declared to his servants the prophets.

Sin that incurs death...

Daniel 7:8 ASV - I considered the horns, and, behold, there came up among them another horn, a little one, before which three of the first horns were plucked up by the roots: and, behold, in this horn were eyes like the eyes of a man, and a mouth speaking great things.

"Psalm 69:4 ASV — They that hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of my head: They that would cut me off, being mine enemies wrongfully, are mighty: That which I took not away I have to restore.
I felt like I was a machine, like my brain was a supercomputer. It was the scariest thing I had ever experienced, to feel that my mind was somehow infiltrated, robotic."

Excerpts:
"Revelation 2:9 ASV — I know thy tribulation, and thy poverty (but thou art rich), and the blasphemy of them that say they are Jews, and they are not, but are a synagogue of Satan.


What was once very dark had now started to turn to light. I saw a beautiful painting online of angels fighting a battle with demons. White above, fighting the dark below. It was so beautiful I wanted to paint it myself, but I never saved it and could never find it again.

I eventually returned to the JW's thinking they would understand and that they too were awakened. I was wrong. I stayed with them because it helped me to return to my roots, the love I had for Jehovah and Jesus Christ. In time, I saw how they were still seriously flawed. I was persecuted first for claiming to be anointed, and later for asking questions about teachings that were unbiblical. They silenced me... eventually I lost some family and friends. The love they "so much" profess to have for others went right out the door... no more love.

I returned to God, not religion. I've learned all religions are the same, just done differently. One may not lose their family, but you are still considered an outsider, different, and not one of their own, even if you are welcomed, because they "welcome" you at a distance. It's not about the people, it's about one's belief, one's church... indoctrination.

What is Transhumanism?

Many months back someone shared a video. It was about Transhumanism; I knew instantly what it was. "I now have name for it" was my thought, for all that I had experienced in 2019 and so forth. In the video it was said it's for the future. That's a lie. For me, it's already here.

Ephesians 6:11 ASV — Put on the whole armor of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
Ephesians 6:12 ASV — For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world-rulers of this darkness, against the spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places."

When YOU are too PROUD to listen...

Today I will be sharing my thoughts on the infamous "I AM that I AM" and "I am" verses. I will do a breakdown of the "I AM that I AM" verse in Exodus 3:14, to the simple "I am" verse in John 8:58, the false claim millions make as proof text that Jesus is God. This will be explained in detail toward the end of this post.

For now, I'd like to start here...

  • Which one is God in the following verse?
Psalm 110:1 ASV — A Psalm of David. Jehovah saith unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand, Until I make thine enemies thy footstool.

The above verse shows how David is speaking of the Father, Jehovah God and referring to Jesus as the Lord. David no doubt knew that Jehovah our God is one. 

The verse is Psalm 110:1 shows a clear distinction between the two; Jehovah God and the Lord ~ Jesus Christ.
  • Who is David's Lord?
Jehovah God, the Father said to his Son, the only one made Lord (master) of the Father's house to sit at his right hand until he makes the enemies a footstool.

Jesus quotes this verse to prove he is David's Lord, his Master... a verse that shows a distinction between himself and God, the Father in the Old Testament. 

Matthew 22:44 ASV — The Lord said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, Till I put thine enemies underneath thy feet?

1 Corinthians 8:4 ASV - Concerning therefore the eating of things sacrificed to idols, we know that no idol is [anything] in the world, and that there is no God but one.
  • If Jesus is God and Jehovah is God, how many Gods are revealed in Psalm 110:1?
  • Is Jesus still God in that verse?
  • If Jesus is God and Jehovah is God, why bother making the distinction between the two?
  • Does this verse show Jesus is Jehovah, as many of you love to claim?
  • How many Jehovah's are there?
Deuteronomy 6:4 ASV - Hear, O Israel: Jehovah our God is one Jehovah:
  • Should you have other GODS before him?
Exodus 20:2-3 ASV - I am Jehovah thy God, who brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. Thou shalt have no other gods before me.

1 Corinthians 8:5-6 ASV - For though there be that are called gods, whether in heaven or on earth; as there are gods many, and lords many; yet to us there is one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we unto him; and one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom are all things, and we through him.
  • Why can't one see the difference?
1 Corinthians 8:7 ASV - Howbeit there is not in all men that knowledge: but some, being used until now to the idol, eat as [of] a thing sacrificed to an idol; and their conscience being weak is defiled.
  • What is idol worship?
All religions are guilty of this. 

Here's (at the least) 10 examples of this...
  1. Teaching others to rely on your understanding/teachings, your church/your belief, your doctrines. What you say to one who disagrees with you matters...never forget that your actions speak louder than words.
      • [Jas 3:1, 6, 8 ASV] Be not many [of you] teachers, my brethren, knowing that we shall receive heavier judgment. ... And the tongue is a fire: the world of iniquity among our members is the tongue, which defileth the whole body, and setteth on fire the wheel of nature, and is set on fire by hell. ... but the tongue can no man tame; [it is] a restless evil, [it is] full of deadly poison.
      • [1Ti 4:1 ASV] But the Spirit saith expressly, that in later times some shall fall away from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits and doctrines of demons
      • [Luk 6:44, 45 ASV] For each tree is known by its own fruit. For of thorns men do not gather figs, nor of a bramble bush gather they grapes. The good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and the evil [man] out of the evil [treasure] bringeth forth that which is evil: for out of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh.
    • It's a Spiritual church, not a literal one... 
      • [Pro 3:5-6 ASV] Trust in Jehovah with all thy heart, And lean not upon thine own understanding: In all thy ways acknowledge him, And he will direct thy paths. 
      • [Jhn 2:19, 21 ASV] Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up. ... But he spake of the temple of his body.
      • [1Co 6:19 ASV] Or know ye not that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit which is in you, which ye have from God? and ye are not your own;
      • [2Co 5:1 ASV] For we know that if the earthly house of our tabernacle be dissolved, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands, eternal, in the heavens.
      • [1Pe 2:5 ASV] ye also, as living stones, are built up a spiritual house, to be a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.
    • I've been taught by the spirit...
      • [1Co 14:2 ASV] For he that speaketh in a tongue speaketh not unto men, but unto God; for no man understandeth; but in the spirit he speaketh mysteries.
  2. Your religion... 
      • [Jas 1:26 ASV] If any man thinketh himself to be religious, while he bridleth not his tongue but deceiveth his heart, this man's religion is vain
    • God's religion...
      • [Jas 1:27 ASV] Pure religion and undefiled before our God and Father is this, to visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, [and] to keep oneself unspotted from the world.
  3. Your teachers: scholars, religious leaders, mentors...
      • [Eph 5:6 ASV] Let no man deceive you with empty words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the sons of disobedience.
  4. Your traditions...
      • [Mar 7:7-9 ASV] But in vain do they worship me, Teaching [as their] doctrines the precepts of men. Ye leave the commandment of God, and hold fast the tradition of men. And he said unto them, Full well do ye reject the commandment of God, that ye may keep your tradition.
    • You must follow the two greatest commandments...
      • [Mat 22:37-40 ASV] And he said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the great and first commandment. And a second like [unto it] is this, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. On these two commandments the whole law hangeth, and the prophets.
  5. Your understanding, your faith. 
    • (It's based on what you believe... it's not based on love.)
      • [1Co 13:2 ASV] And if I have [the gift of] prophecy, and know all mysteries and all knowledge; and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing.
    • Those of God will ALWAYS put LOVE first. That is true faith...
      • [1Jo 4:16 ASV] And we know and have believed the love which God hath in us. God is love; and he that abideth in love abideth in God, and God abideth in him.
  6. The BIBLE... 
    • It is used as a weapon to fight/argue with others, and/or it's disregarded, used only for your proof texts, ignoring and/or twisting scriptures to fit your theology... setting aside (disregarding) those who want to further discuss it with you. Covering your ears because it becomes about your truth, your religion, your faith. Sadly, revealing your true heart.
      • [Pro 21:4 ASV] A high look, and a proud heart, [Even] the lamp of the wicked, is sin. 
    • The Bible contradicts itself; it's been corrupted by man. 
      • [2Ti 4:3-4 ASV] For the time will come when they will not endure the sound doctrine; but, having itching ears, will heap to themselves teachers after their own lusts; and will turn away their ears from the truth, and turn aside unto fables.
    • Only God, the Father can guide you through it...
      • [Psa 1:2 ASV] But his delight is in the law of Jehovah; And on his law doth he meditate day and night. 
      • [Act 17:11 ASV] Now these were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, examining the scriptures daily, whether these things were so.
      • [Rom 2:29 ASV] but he is a Jew who is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God.
  7. Pride... 
    • You can't be wrong. You REFUSE to accept it can be any other way, therefore, you remain blind. 
      • [Mat 13:15 ASV] For this people's heart is waxed gross, And their ears are dull of hearing, And their eyes they have closed; Lest haply they should perceive with their eyes, And hear with their ears, And understand with their heart, And should turn again, And I should heal them.
      • [Mat 15:14 ASV] Let them alone: they are blind guides. And if the blind guide the blind, both shall fall into a pit.
      • [Mat 23:28 ASV] Even so ye also outwardly appear righteous unto men, but inwardly ye are full of hypocrisy and iniquity.
  8. Self - it's about you... (Exalted)
    • Self-righteousness... what you THINK, better yet, what you think you know. I've personally been told this from varying denominations. The Unitarian: "You're incoherent... that's why you don't have a church." The Trinitarian: "We think you're trying to change our church." or "You don't represent our church." The Arian... "You can't be a part of our church." These are just a few examples of what I've delt with from the churches. All of you letting me know in one way or another you don't want to hear it... I don't belong, unless I conform to your belief.
      • [Mat 23:12 ASV] And whosoever shall exalt himself shall be humbled; and whosoever shall humble himself shall be exalted. 
      • [Luk 18:11 ASV] The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, God, I thank thee, that I am not as the rest of men, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this publican.
      • [Mat 25:45 ASV] Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it not unto one of these least, ye did it not unto me.
    • Are my teachings incoherent?
      • [Luk 8:10 ASV] And he said, Unto you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God: but to the rest in parables; that seeing they may not see, and hearing they may not understand.
  9. The Cross...
    • You honor the murder weapon... it is the "golden calf". (Exodus 32:1-10) You can deny it, but it doesn't change that you do it. If I can see it, no doubt God can too.
      • [2Ki 18:4 ASV] He removed the high places, and brake the pillars, and cut down the Asherah: and he brake in pieces the brazen serpent that Moses had made; for unto those days the children of Israel did burn incense to it; and he called it Nehushtan.
  10. Money...
      • Matthew 10:8 ASV - Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse the lepers, cast out demons: freely ye received, freely give.
      • [Mat 23:16 ASV] Woe unto you, ye blind guides, that say, Whosoever shall swear by the temple, it is nothing; but whosoever shall swear by the gold of the temple, he is a debtor.
      • [Mat 6:24 ESV] "No one can serve two masters, for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and money.
      • [Mat 6:2 ASV] When therefore thou doest alms, sound not a trumpet before thee, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory of men. Verily I say unto you, They have received their reward.
 ~ Church and State ~ 
The church is Divided, not united. 
    • What happens to a house divided?
False prophet (church) and the Antichrist (state)...
      • [Mat 12:25 ASV] And knowing their thoughts he said unto them, Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and every city or house divided against itself shall not stand:
      • [Rev 17:2 ASV] with whom the kings of the earth committed fornication, and they that dwell in the earth were made drunken with the wine of her fornication.
      • [Rev 18:4 ASV] And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come forth, my people, out of her, that ye have no fellowship with her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues:
Please follow the instruction of this verse, think of Cain...
      • Matthew 5:23-24 ASV - If therefore thou art offering thy gift at the altar, and there rememberest that thy brother hath aught against thee, leave there thy gift before the altar, and go thy way, first be reconciled to thy brother, and then come and offer thy gift.
Hold on to YOUR church or go to God the Father... 

~ FREEWILL ~


Continuing on to the discussion of Exodus 3:14...
  • Does the Father, Jehovah God, say that this is HIS NAME FOREVER?
  • Was he lying when he said it was for ALL generations?
Exodus 3:15 ASV - And God said moreover unto Moses, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, Jehovah, the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, hath sent me unto you: THIS IS MY NAME FOREVER, and this is my memorial unto ALL GENERATIONS.

The deceivers have themselves been deceived...

2 Timothy 3:12-13 ASV - Yea, and all that would live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution. But evil men and impostors shall wax worse and worse, deceiving and being deceived.

You, the church, have persecuted me and countless others. I've been persecuted simply for revealing what God has revealed to me. All I wanted to do was share it with you and discuss it, but no, because you know better... "It's YOUR church". Some have flat out banned me; while others allow me in but keep me at arm's length. Reminding me how I don't represent the church... YOUR church.

The church should be about the people, ALL PEOPLE, regardless of belief, it's not just about WHAT YOU BELIEVE. All should be welcome to express what they feel when it comes to scripture. There's no requirement that they must follow you. NONE...they must follow Christ and rely on the Father. Whether one is right or wrong by "YOUR" view doesn't matter... it's not your job to judge them by what "YOU" believe, lead them to scripture, drop seed, allowing God to correct the path when needed. 

Something most of you KNOW NOT how to do, because you lack (love) TRUE FAITH in GOD. You make it about SELF. In the end it was YOU who had something to learn. 

Heed the warning...
  • What does a true leader do?
1 Corinthians 3:6-8 ASV - I planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase. So then neither is he that planteth anything, neither he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase. Now he that planteth and he that watereth are one: but each shall receive his own reward according to his own labor.

1 Corinthians 3:9 ASV - For we are God's fellow-workers: ye are God's husbandry, God's building.
  • Does the true leader fear one's belief, no matter how radical it may be?
1 John 4:18 ASV - There is no fear in love: but perfect love casteth out fear, because fear hath punishment; and he that feareth is not made perfect in love.

True leaders are taught by God and lead others to God, they don't become exalted by making it about their truth... the earthly church is exalted with its own truth (control/power), you have led many astray, myself included, stemming from when I was a child. 

Either you do not care to understand, or you have forgotten that it is God that sets the path straight, not you. It is not up to man (your religion) ... you rely on "yourself and/or your religion" not God, and that is why you are so DIVIDED.

It's always been a spiritual church, not a physical one...

1 John 2:26-27 ASV - These things have I written unto you concerning them that would lead you astray. And as for you, the anointing which ye received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any one teach you; but as his anointing teacheth you concerning all things, and is true, and is no lie, and even as it taught you, ye abide in him.

These will guide you to scripture and teach you to rely on the One True God, the Father, that He is the one who guides you to truth... who is Jesus Christ. It is Jesus who then reveals the Father to you, if he so chooses.

Matthew 11:27 ASV - All things have been delivered unto me of my Father: and no one knoweth the Son, save the Father; neither doth any know the Father, save the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son willeth to reveal [him.]

Excerpt:
"Everyone has their own message that they need to follow, but for them to retrieve it, they too have to take the time to read it. You offer to help, but in the end, they have to understand it for themselves. The overall message is the same, but the message within is unique to all, each has to make it their own, in a way that works for them, because everyone is different and what works for one, may not work for the other."

Heed the warning... wake up, repent and mend your ways. Show LOVE in all that you do. I've been mocked for this... but yes, it is ALL ABOUT THE LOVE. Without LOVE you have nothing. HELP ALL, not just those who believe like you. Yes, even the transvestite or homosexual, or the one who believes Jesus is a gay woman or in a Mother God. It's FEAR that makes you judge them. No one is asking you to be like them, but you MUST love them anyway.

Excerpt:
"The church was the reason why I left the first time, and it could have been the reason why I would leave again. But because my reliance and understanding come from God and not man, my faith is unshakable. It is your responsibility to draw people in, not push them away with YOUR understanding of scripture."

No sin is greater than another... meaning that YOUR SIN is no different than their sin.

If you were TRULY OF GOD, you would understand this...

1 John 5:17-19 ASV - All unrighteousness is sin: and there is a sin not unto death. We know that whosoever is begotten of God sinneth not; but he that was begotten of God keepeth himself, and the evil one toucheth him not. We know that we are of God, and the whole world lieth in the evil one. 

The awake virgins follow the bride... STAY ALERT
These will do everything IN LOVE.

1 Corinthians 15:23 ASV - But each in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; then they that are Christ's, at his coming.

All sin is sin, unless one is awakened in the Spirit, you're not sinning against it. Being awakened in the Spirit is not something you need to figure out, this is something you would know for certain, but one MUST test the spirits. All can be guided by the spirit, but that does not mean you are born again. Sadly, many of you have been deceived.

Not the same as being born again...
  • [Luk 11:13 ASV] If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall [your] heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?
Satan is crafty and deceitful... 
ALL RELIGIONS are GUILTY of this.

2 Corinthians 11:3-4, 14 ASV - But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve in his craftiness, your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity and the purity that is toward Christ. For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we did not preach, or [if] ye receive a different spirit, which ye did not receive, or a different gospel, which ye did not accept, ye do well to bear with [him]. ... And no marvel; for even Satan fashioneth himself into an angel of light.

Matthew 24:30-31 ASV - and then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. And he shall send forth his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.

Final resurrection of the dead... the New Earth

John 6:44 ASV - No man can come to me, except the Father that sent me draw him: and I will raise him up in the last day.

Revelation 7:9, 17 ASV - After these things I saw, and behold, a great multitude, which no man could number, out of every nation and of [all] tribes and peoples and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, arrayed in white robes, and palms in their hands; ... for the Lamb that is in the midst of the throne shall be their shepherd, and shall guide them unto fountains of waters of life: and God shall wipe away every tear from their eyes.
  • [Eze 47:1-12 ASV] Water from the Temple
Revelation 20:13, 15 ASV - And the sea gave up the dead that were in it; and death and Hades gave up the dead that were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works. ... And if any was not found written in the book of life, he was cast into the lake of fire.


Final words, back to Exodus 3:14...

"I AM that I AM" or I am?


We'll start by comparing the following verse from the Old Testament to the same verse quoted in the New Testament...

Exodus 3:6 ASV — Moreover he said, I am h595 the God of thy father, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. And Moses hid his face; for he was afraid to look upon God.
  • I am” (H595) is equivalent to “I” (G1473) as shown below.
  •  “I am” is only equivalent to I because "am" does not exist in Hebrew.
Hebrew: I

Lexicon :: Strong's G1510 - eimi

Strong’s Definitions [?](Strong’s Definitions Legend)
εἰμί eimí, i-mee'; the first person singular present indicative; a prolonged form of a primary and defective verb; I exist (used only when emphatic):—am, have been× it is I, was. See also G1488G1498G1511G1527G2258G2071G2070G2075G2076G2771G2468G5600.

Words matter, to exist is to become. Exist is simply, existed or was. One must go with the context of the conversation, not read with a bias understanding. If one reads it with a bias understanding, one reads it through their own lens and context. Something "Biblical" Unitarians don't comprehend.

Jesus was explaining that he existed before Abraham, showing his pre-existence. He was not saying he would become what he chose to become. Which is what the Father was stating in Exodus 3:14. The Father would be, and could be, whatever he pleases... me, you, Jesus, whatever, because he is all powerful; Almighty and unsearchable.

When Jesus said “I am” in Hebrew, he would have simply said I ('ānōḵî) h595. He was speaking to Jews, not Greeks. In that very same verse, he did use “I AM” (g1096) but NOT in reference to himself. So (g1510) refers to; is, am or was, meaning current or past tense, as shown in Genesis 3:10 and Exodus 3:6it is not... to exist or to become. (Future tense.)

Another verse with “I AMh1961 hāyâ -

Isaiah 43:10 ASV - Ye are my witnesses, saith Jehovah, and my servant whom I have chosen; that ye may know and believe me, and understand that I am he: before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be h1961 after me. (Future tense.)

None of the following verses say hāyâ; he will exist (to exist) or will become (to become). It simply says 'ānōḵî; I am, (I, I exist, or I was) g1473 and g1510…

Matt 14:27 it’s me; Mark 6:50; 14:62 it’s me; Luke 22:70 it’s me; John 8:24, 28, 58 it’s me, I existed; 13:19 it’s me; 18:6 it’s me.

Many like to say well that is how it is translated in the LXX Greek. Okay, then be consistent and use the LXX Greek for everything you teach, including the Apocrypha the infamous “proof text” in Isaiah 9:6 to claim Jesus is God.

The following verse has NO MENTION of Jesus being called a Mighty God...

Brenton Septuagint Translation
Isaiah 9:6 BST - For a child is born to us, and a son is given to us, whose government is upon his shoulder: and his name is called the Messenger of great counsel: for I will bring peace upon the princes, and health to him.

Furthermore, please keep in mind that Jesus was a Jew, speaking to a Jewish audience (Pharisees) quoting from scrolls (Tanakh) that were in Jewish synagogues.

Exodus 23:20-21 ASV — Behold, I send an angel before thee, to keep thee by the way, and to bring thee into the place which I have prepared. Take ye heed before him, and hearken unto his voice; provoke him not; for he will not pardon your transgression: for my name is in him.

God’s seal, it in the name of Jesus; Strong’s h3091/g2424: "Jehovah is Salvation". Salvation is done by the Father through Jesus Christ, his messenger (angel) that spoke God’s word.

Jeremiah 23:26-27 ASV - How long shall this be in the heart of the prophets that prophesy lies, even the prophets of the deceit of their own heart? that think to cause my people to forget my name by their dreams which they tell every man to his neighbor, as their fathers forgat my name for Baal.

John 1:1 when understood properly reads as follows…

Word

  • Is it not the Father's?

Jeremiah 23:29 ASV — Is not my word h1697 like fire? saith Jehovah; and like a hammer that breaketh the rock in pieces?

John 1:1 ASV - In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word g3056 was God.

If you still can't see it, it's because YOU DON'T WANT TO see it.

Jesus’ own words: Deny him and you deny the Father who sent him.

John 17:1-3 ASV — These things spake Jesus; and lifting up his eyes to heaven, he said, Father, the hour is come; glorify thy Son, that the Son may glorify thee: even as thou gavest him authority over all flesh, that to all whom thou hast given him, he should give eternal life. And this is life eternal, that they should know thee the only true God, and him whom thou didst send, even Jesus Christ.

Please stop twisting the scripture to fit your theology… ONE GOD – the FATHER and he is the head of Christ.

1 Corinthians 8:6 ASV — yet to us there is one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we unto him; and one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom are all things, and we through him.

1 Corinthians 11:3 ASV — But I would have you know, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of Christ is God.

There is not a single scripture that ever refers to the Son of God as the Almighty God. 
That title belongs to the Father.

You can fight it all you want, but it will not change the truth.

Those who claim Jesus did not pre-exist can't explain it to you because they too have twisted scripture to fit their theology. Jesus did pre-exist and he is the head messenger, the Archangel Michael.

Daniel 12:1 ASV - And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince who standeth for the children of thy people; and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book.

It all fits like a glove, but only those with eyes to see will see it.

When you put your faith (religion/man/yourself) before love, that becomes your God. Scriptures are revealed to each individual person and it's God the Father who reveals it. If God is not revealing it to you, you need to start asking yourself "Why?"... maybe start with the 10 things I listed above.

1 John 5:20-21 ASV - And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given us an understanding, that we know him that is true, and we are in him that is true, [even] in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life. [My] little children, guard yourselves from idols.

Ecclesiastes 5:1 ASV - Keep thy foot when thou goest to the house of God; for to draw nigh to hear is better than to give the sacrifice of fools: for they know not that they do evil.

I learn from the Father and drop the seed, it's up to you to search these things out and make sure that they are so. Let no man deceive means just that... let no man deceive you. There's a letter in the scriptures for each one of you, but it's up to you to search it out.

Again, the seed can only take root if the ground is fertile...

Matthew 7:26 ASV - And every one that heareth these words of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, who built his house upon the sand:

If you're silently praying out loud to God (but in your heart) to Jesus or the holy trinity or the holy spirit... you are not praying to God, the Father. You are praying to the Antichrist. 

The Father knows the hearts well...

Hebrews 4:12 ASV - For the word of God is living, and active, and sharper than any two-edged sword, and piercing even to the dividing of soul and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and quick to discern the thoughts and intents of the heart.

Free will...

Matthew 6:6, 9 ASV - But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thine inner chamber, and having shut thy door, pray to thy Father who is in secret, and thy Father who seeth in secret shall recompense thee. ... After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father who art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.

Matthew 6:21 ASV - for where thy treasure is, there will thy heart be also.

What matters more...
  • Your truth?
  • The Father's Truth?
John 14:6 ASV - Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, and the truth, and the life: no one cometh unto the Father, but by me.

Matthew 7:7-8 ASV - Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: for every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.



May the Father through Jesus Christ bless you with continued truth and understanding...
